  We are Re-Branding To "Being" An Advisor

With the certain advent of the book entitled, “Being” An Advisor – it’s about Being Then Doing, I decided to re-title my Blog & E-Newsletter.

For some insight behind this I have copied a few of my most recent Blog articles.

December 15, 2005 - It Is About Being Then Doing

The end of the year of Doing is nearing an end and I’m noticing that I’m really feeling that I want my work to be more about Being in 2006.

 

For the book, I’m thinking of either …

 

Being an Advisor
It’s about being then doing

 

Or

 

Being an Entrepreneur
It’s about being then doing


Clearly, I want to write the book and the supporting web site, e-newsletter, blog, power point and programs from a place of Being vs. Doing. Not needing to do it.

 

So, I’m thinking of throwing out my income goals until the above is created.

 

Those that are meant to find me will find me will, and those that are not, will not. No enrolling, no selling, no pushing which isn’t what I do or want to do.

 

“You don’t love someone for their looks, or their clothes, or for their fancy car, but because they sing a song only you can hear”. - Anonymous

 

We had a new client decide to work with us today. The client is ready. The client could really hear our message and they are very clear that we can help them to meet and exceed their dreams for 2006. The client surrendered to the fact that their way just simply isn’t working.

 

So this is the start of my true Vision work for 2006.

 

Enjoy the ride.


December 16, 2005 - You Need Two Wake Up Calls

I’ve been talking about the concept of remembering to wake up twice each day.

 

You are familiar with the first wake up call.

 

You know …

 

When you are in lucid sleep and then you wake up for the first time.

 

The first wake up call is when you become awake and the thought addiction starts.

 

The thought addiction is based up on your fear based, unmet needs seeking ego mind.

 

Your fear based, unmet needs based ego mind has you addicted to thought thinking: 

  • What do I have to do toady?

  • Who do I have to see today?

  • How will I earn extra money today?

  • Who do I have to impress today?

  • What conflict do I have to deal with today?

 

ENOUGH!

 

STOP!

 

SHUT UP!

 

It is time for the second wake up call.

 

The second wake up call is when you, your higher self wakes up.

 

To when your higher self wakes up to no thought.

 

Things that make you go Hmmm …

 

January 03, 2006 - The Year of “Being” Awake

Happy New Year!

 

I’m writing this Blog entry at 10am on Thursday, December 29th, 2005 during one of my “Wake Up Calls”, while looking out at the ocean view from the Kingfisher Resort & Spa on Vancouver Island.

 

You may recall that my last Blog entry was about “You Need Two Wake Up Calls”.

 

Many accolades to The Kingfisher Resort & Spa! The attention to the detail, environment, facilities, food, service, staff were all absolutely amazing and we will be back. If you want to give yourself and your loved ones the gift of an absolutely amazing retreat this is the place. Click, The King Fisher Resort & Spa to go to the site.

 

Laura and I have been over on Vancouver Island since December 24th and we will return to Vancouver on January 1st, 2006.

 

During this time we have been visiting family, enjoying time together and enjoying time away from the city.

 

At the same time, I’ve been taking some of the time to catch up on my writing and to enhance my planning for 2006.

 

Following the notion of “Staying Awake” or “Wake Up Calls” …

 

It is the Unhealthy Primal Ego Mind that is addicted in all consuming thoughts that include;

 

• Am I safe?
• Am I good enough?
• What do I have to do next?
• Where do I have to go next?
• What do I have to buy next?
• Who is looking at me?
• What do people think of me?
• Does what I have compare to what others have?


And on, and on, and on, and on, and on and ….

 

So as I work though my writing and planning, “I” am remembering to stop every so often to ask, “Am I Awake”?

 

It is important that I give my mind a rest from thinking for if “I” do not “I” can easily get consumed by the thought addiction of the Unhealthy Primal Ego Mind.

 

Thoughts that are related to thought addiction are based upon unmet needs, which trigger limiting beliefs and limiting emotions. It would stand to reason that vision, goals, projects and actions are doomed to failure because of what they are based upon.

 

In The Year of “Being” Awake, “I” want my writing, planning and everything to be based upon conscious “Being”.

 

Conscious “Being” can be achieved by taking time between tasks to “Wake Up” and practice “No thought” or “No thing”. For some of you this can mean to “Know God” or

 

“Know The Force”.

 

This way, “I” can remind myself of my values, positive beliefs and positive feelings that are all “Being” related.

 

P.S. - Thank you to Kathryn Langsford of Photos By Kathryn for the great new photo.

 

January 09, 2006 - No-Thought

Following through on The Year of “Being” Awake …

 

Remember to Honor the results that you are creating on a weekly basis, daily if you can find the time.

 

Honoring your results focuses you on the results that you are creating from within. You can do this by recording the feelings that you are experiencing through the results that you are creating. This also creates more focus from within versus the material results that your results may be related to.

 

In this way, you are not just trying to be good, you are focusing on the goodness that is within you and allowing that goodness to emerge.

 

In essence, you are becoming enlightened because you are recognizing your results from within. Without recognition, your results remain unawakened if you will.

 

In essence, you look at what you have from within versus looking at what you are without.

 

As you continue to focus on the reality of what you have within, the more your inner strength begins to emerge to the surface.

 

This entire process will help you to accelerate your awareness because it will help to eliminate the compulsive addiction to thoughts and get you to the place of inspiration where there is no-person, no-place, no-possession, no-thing or no-thought.

 

Through this you will find the joy of “Being”.
